T IS  to  present  proper  combinations  of  Fields,  with  appropriate  Borders,  that  we 
issue  this  collection  of  Plates. 

In  correspondence  with  us  do  not  deface  or  tear  the  sheets,  simply  refer  to 
Plate  No.  The  woods  named  in  each  pattern  are  as  they  are  regularly  made, 
and  are  in  stock.  The  small  numbers  shown  on  each  pattern  indicate  “ B ” for  Border, 
“C"  for  Corner,  “F  " for  Field. 

Copy  of  our  regular  Book  of  Designs,  showing  other  patterns,  will  be  sent  on  request. 
Drawings  will  be  submitted,  showing  change  in  Fields  or  Borders.  Borders  can  be 
made  wider  with  strips  to  good  effect,  and  plain  Fields  of  Oak  Strips  or  "WOOD  CAR- 
PET" can  be  substituted  where  preferred. 

When  writing  for  suggestions,  it  is  well  to  name  the  color  of  woods  in  doors,  mantels, 
furniture,  etc.,  that  the  woods  employed  in  the  Border  and  Field  may  correspond  and 
harmonize  in  each  room. 

Borders  are  shown  herein,  by  cutting  the  turn  to  a mitre,  which  is  the  more  artistic 
method.  However,  all  patterns  in  Borders  do  not  mitre  equally  well,  and  for  such,  or  where 
preferred,  Corner  Blocks  to  suit  any  pattern  can  be  furnished.  We  make  estimate  for  any 
pattern  of  Border  to  any  circle.

ONSIST  OF  strips  and  blocks  of  Hardwood,  fastened  together  at  edges 
and  on  backs,  in  slabs  of  convenient  size  for  laying. 

They  are  made  a solid  part  of  the  floor  by  being  nailed  down  to 
the  under  floor. 

They  are  then  finished  with  Wax  or  Parquet-lac  so  as  to  heighten  the  natural 
beauty  of  the  wood. 

They  are  made  beautiful  by  the  contrasting  colors  of  the  different  woods  em- 
ployed, and  the  weaving  effects  produced  by  changing  the  direction  of  the  grain  in 
the  perfectly-made  joints. 

They  have  been  made  after  this  method  in  Europe  for  centuries,  and  are  no 
experiment. 

They  are  established  here  and  have  come  to  stay. 

To  those  interested,  we  will  mail  small  sample  that  they  may  understand  the 
work  we  offer. 

All  prices  named  are  for  goods  5-16"  thick,  uncut  and  measured  before  laid. 
Prices  for  any  design  in  7-8"  thick  will  be  given  on  application. 

We  make  no  charge  for  plans  or  estimates  furnished,  if  returned  to  us.
